Fascinates me, these folks getting these great recordings. Audio, guitars etc.. OUTSIDE in the WOODS. or wherever. Sounded great. Great tune, thanks for sharing.

Good stuff, mate. Anyway, Every time I hear this song, I can't help but imagine the countless times I've fallen down a hill.

[@nonamemusic8328]

If I fall ONE MORE TIME to the bottom of that mountain, I'M GOING TO LOSE MY SHIT

[@gus9225]

his shoes adjusted for inflation are worth $15ish USD, while he needs $150ish USD for his shoes. Depending on the person that isn't far off, for my last job it was required to have high grade "steel" toed slip-resistant waterproof winter boots though they were compensated they did cost around $200CDN or $149USD there isn't really a point to this just neat to think about.

Well i think this one is the closest to the dead so far, you need to give robert hunter a chance! Its part of the great american songbook, songs like sugaree, loser, wharf rat, that would be something...

[@jacobjohanson7326]

Would kill to hear him play a bird song

[@MistuhCoolio]

Maybe a Box of Rain?

[@nickg1601]

I would love to just hear his opinion on the Dead!

[@rickym1883]

This was way better than I thought it would be , awesome cover

[@bazeblackwood]

Isto, it's been almost a decade since I've seen a video of yours!! How is that possible? But damn, if you don't still got the rhythm.

[@petsounds662]

Hey friend. Did you have trouble in the beginning ( or even still ) learning to separate singing and guitar playing? I'm a near 20yr guitar guy but I still have issues with a lot of songs syncing ideas up between my voice and playing. My girlfriend kindly waits 3 minutes if she asks me a question while I'm playing anything that particularly interests my smooth smooth brain :)

Ooh makes me think of walking the wasteland In fallout new vegas.

Going down the Road Feeling Glad or maybe fantastic. I have noticed a lot of the bluegrass / old time music seems to have been written by people that I might think of as glass halve empty. The funny thing is they often have depressing lyrics, but are played in a very up tempo happy kind of way. :) Great stuff Isto.

Just real, life is hard now but at least we're clean and warm and mostly well fed

[@LiteralSloth]

Love it!

[@davidkarpe5535]

Go Mr Isto!

[@raskinblog]

May Woodie Guthrie and Elizabeth Cottens Karma bless you. Thank you. Much needed. Bro.

[@camsuke]

Great stuff! And a fabulous song choice!

[@dannytunsia]

sounds great, I love all the variations on this tune, I love the lyrics and you have a super feel for this tune.

[@newjack2166]

I wish I could be there with you playing harmonica.

[@Arkenboutmusic]

I've been watching these vids for a couple years now. I'm gonna become a patron soon as I get out of working retail. Great work Isto!
